Thanks Darren. I know that there are only a few settings added with sp1 but the entire ADM template would overwrite the one I have if I ran GPMC from the server. The one I'm concerned about is the inetres.adm. Eventually I will need to incorporate the changes into my production ADM(XPsp2). Am I wrong in thinking that I will have to reset every setting in the new ADM? Or has Microsoft provided a way to import the current settings into the newer ADM? Thanks for your help. Mary

Hello, I have just been informed that our DCs are scheduled to be upgraded to Windows 2003 service pack 1. I run the GPMC on a Windows XPsp2 PC. As long as I only use an XPsp2 machine to run the GPMC I should not have any problems, correct? It is only if I run the GPMC from the DC that my ADM templates would get updated. I just want to be sure that I don't have to worry about my current settings getting overwritten. Thanks for your help. Mary Collingwood

Mary- That is correct. In any case, if some GPOs do get upgraded, the difference between the 2003, SP1 and XP,SP 2 ADMs are negligible anyway (see www.gpoguy.com/admdiffs.htm for details).
